50 Tips For Happiness And Productivity!

If you at times feel stressed out and overwhelmed, you are not alone. “Stress is the dirty secret of success: as life gets better than ever, people are feeling worse.”
Daily life can be made happier. It is a matter of choice. It is our
attitude that makes us feel happy or unhappy. It is true, we meet all kinds
of situations during the day, and some of them may not be conductive to
happiness. We can choose to keep thinking about the unhappy events, and we can
choose to refuse to think about them, and instead, relish the happy moments. All
of us constantly go through various situations and circumstances, but we do not
have to let them influence our reactions and feelings.

change the way you look at things. Always look at the bright side.
The mind may drag you to think about negativity and difficulties. Don't let it.
Look at the good and positive side of every situation.

Think of solutions, not problems.

Listen to relaxing, uplifting music.

Watch funny comedies that make you laugh.

Each day, devote some time to reading a few pages of an inspiring book or
article.

Always look at what you have done and not at what you
haven't. Sometimes you may begin the day with the desire to accomplish
several objectives. At the end of the day you might feel frustrated and unhappy,
because you haven't been able to do all of those things. Look at what you have done, not at what you have not been able to do. You may
have accomplished a lot during the day, and yet you let yourself become
frustrated, because of some small things that you did not accomplish. You have
spent all day successfully carrying out many plans, and instead of feeling happy
and satisfied, you look at what was not accomplished and feel unhappy. It is
unfair toward yourself.

Each day do something good for yourself. It can be something small, such
buying a book, eating something you love, watching your favorite program on TV,
going to a movie, or just having a stroll on the beach.

Smile more often.

Associate with happy people, and try to learn from them to be happy. And alwaysRemember, happiness is contagious.
